Any chance we'll ever see these Character in Sonic 1 hacks compiled into one convenient go to ROM? However Might and Mecha Sonic kick some serious ass. Loving the title screens BTW, your art never ceases to amaze me
I just thought I'd try hacking once: (ignore the filter) Yeah, it's just Sonic that's changed. I'm planning on shading everything like this with more definition.
No... I don't really know what to do with it right now, it's practically done, but the runner has still got to be worked on a lot.
You do realise that the shading differences would be easier to spot if they weren't super smoothed by that filter, right? Looks good though
Oh that's much easier to tell. Looks pretty sweet to be honest, can't wait to see it's effect on the whole thing
I'm kinda using the filter to my advantage... I think it looks ok with the dithering without it anyway.
I'm not sure to keep working on this, or my with other hack... Also... =P + - (Simple sprite edit, no release planned)
whoah! please continue both of them! :D more original characters in hacks are interesting Sonic in Socket is just plain win :D
There are other ways to do dithering than just the checkerboard pattern and not everything benefits greatly from it. Personally, I think his execution is awful. Especially when it conflicts with the rest of the art.
he did say he was changing the rest of the art eventually, so it's safe to assume it would match. I like dithering shading honestly.
I'm not saying dithering can't work, but simply using a completely regular check pattern is probably not the best way to do it.
Got four screenshots here...mainly sprite stuff. Springing sprite, made to look similar to Brawl's one...I think it doesn't look too bad to be honest. Falling sprite, also made to look semi-similar to brawl's. New walljump sprite (Thanks Mercury and E-122-Psi for walljump stuff) And finally Eggman appearance rather than Robotnik style. Also experimenting boss layouts. The sprite work for the first three (and the rest in game) are used and edited from the existing sheet shown here, and ones not there are edited from those and Sonic 3 sprites edited into the same style.
